Invasive Calendar Marketing via Third-Party Domains & Inaccurate Data Lists
I am writing this to document a highly invasive marketing practice used by Coram.ai. I received multiple "Registration Confirmation" emails and automated calendar invitations for a "Unified Security" webinar that I never signed up for. Technical Observations: Deceptive Subject Lines: The emails were labeled as "Confirmations," implying a prior transaction or registration that never occurred. This appears to be a tactic to bypass standard email spam filters. Domain Masking: The initial invitations originated from an external domain (sightpoint.net) which currently has no active website and appears to serve solely as a "burner" for outbound solicitation. Data Accuracy Issues: The invitations were addressed to "Steve Eubanks," which is not my name. This confirms the use of unverified, third-party lead lists rather than a direct opt-in or legitimate business relationship. Infrastructure Abuse: The sender utilized Zoom’s registration API to force entries onto my private calendar. Following the "confirmation," I received a direct follow-up from a coram.ai email address offering an "insulated mug" as an attendance gift. While the product may be legitimate, the "forced registration" and "calendar spam" methods used to generate leads are non-compliant with standard B2B marketing ethics and raise significant questions regarding their CAN-SPAM Act compliance. I have formally reported the associated Webinar IDs to Zoom Trust & Safety and flagged the domain infrastructure with AWS. I recommend that Coram.ai immediately audit their third-party marketing vendors to ensure they are not damaging the brand's reputation with these "black hat" growth tactics.
